Red Sox, Mets and Yankess all want Huskies to throw out first ball.

Red Sox are up first.

NY showed UCONN a ton of love... Hopefully we get KO to throw out the 1st pitch at Yankee Stadium

 

[Dooley]

Makes sense. There is no questioning that UCONN is the premier basketball program in the northeast and many of our fans are Sox, Yankees, or Mets fans. Just another illustration of UCONN's presence in not only our own TV market, but larger NYC and Boston markets as well.

Let's divvy them up at take care of them all. Let's get Phil Nolan to a Brewers game. Show those Badger fans what a winner looks like.

Possibly stupid question, but can an underclassman throw out a first pitch. In my scrambled brain, I could see where the NCAA might deem it impermissable due to their basketball skills being the reason they get to throw the ball.

I like it. Ollie throws out the first pitch at a Dodgers game. Brimah can be the ceremonial captain of Ghana's first World Cup game.

. Brimah can be the ceremonial captain of Ghana's first World Cup game.

No. I don't want to root against him. Perhaps the 2nd or 3rd.

Good point. Man, we are in one stacked Group.

Kemba did it.

Giffey can throw out the first pitch in Germany.

Kemba did it.

Per the following link, it looks like he might have declared for the NBA already. Maybe that makes a difference.

Boatright can throw out the first pitch at both the Cubs and the White Sox, because why not?

 

[MattMang23]

Kemba def declared first. No idea if that matters or not, but he was definitely already a "pro."
